  The fact: An electric eel can generate 600 volts, more than twice the output of the mains, using muscles modified to produce electricity over movement. The story: When Somerset vet Felicity Giblet rescues two huge white kittens from an abandoned caravan in Wallop Woods, little does she know that they are a newly discovered breed of Arctic wildcat, equipped with the most shocking means of killing prey. Utterly besotted, she rears them as normal moggies, and a catalogue of disasters ensues. Wildlife is decimated, computers and electrical gismos go haywire, and the local cattery burns to a cinder, yet she finds a perfectly reasonable explanation for everything. Until, that is, her darling Mister Fluffy Pants is kidnapped and whisked away to deepest, darkest Siberia. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lily Curzon.

  Die Frau in Schwarz

  Der aufstrebende junge Anwalt Arthur Kipps reist aus London in den Norden, in das kleine Dorf Crythin Gifford, um der Beerdigung einer verstorbenen Klientin beizuwohnen und ihren Nachlass zu regeln: Mrs. Alice Drablow von Eel Marsh House, wohnhaft in einem abgelegenen Haus im Moor. Was zunachst wie eine routinemaßige Abwicklung der Formalitaten scheint, entwickelt sich zu einem Strudel von Ereignissen und lang gehüteten Geheimnissen, die schrecklicher sind als jeder Albtraum: ein Schaukelstuhl im verlassenen Kinderzimmer, das unheimliche Klappern von Pferdehufen, der Schrei eines Kindes im Nebel und - für Kipps das Schlimmste - immer wieder eine Frau in Schwarz. Die Ein- heimischen sind nicht bereit, über die beunruhigenden Ereignisse zu sprechen, und Kipps ist gezwungen, die wahre Identitat der Frau in Schwarz auf eigene Faust herauszufinden. Ein verzweifelter Wettlauf gegen die Zeit ...

  Eel Marsh house stands alone, surveying the windswept salt marshes beyond Nine Lives Causeway. Once, Mrs Alice Drablow lived here as a recluse. Now, Arthur Kipps, a junior solicitor with a London firm, is summoned to attend her funeral, unaware of the tragic and terrible secrets which lie behind the house's shuttered windows.
